HBO – Hoa Binh lake is one of the largest man-made lakes in the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh, spreading about 8,900 hectares in 19 communes of Hoa Binh city and four districts. With a diverse aquatic ecosystem and clean water, the lake is home to many precious, endemic species of fish, which is favourable for fish breeding. Over the past time, many organisations and individuals have invested and partnered in breeding Da River fish under the value chain, ensuring food safety and meeting market demands.
The project on connectivity in Da River fish production and
consumption has been implemented since 2017-2018 in Hoa Binh city and four
districts. Hai Dang Seafood Ltd., Co. and Cuong Thinh Construction and Service
Ltd., Co. in Thai Thinh commune, Hoa Binh city have participated in the project
with 240 cages which churn out about 800 tonnes per ha. Ten households in Hien
Luong commune, Da Bac district have also joined the chain with a total of 93
cages and an output of 300 tonnes per ha. They produce both specialty and
traditional species of fish.
Hai Dang Seafood Ltd., Co. is breeding fish in accordance with VietGap
standards. Its products are delivered to restaurants and hotels in the northern
region, especially Hanoi.
The businesses and households have received training and financial support to
buy fries, been equipped with knowledge about VietGap standards and food safety
regulations, and been assisted in trade promotion and product sales.
Nguyen Huu Tai, head of the bureau of agro-forestry-fishery product quality
management, said companies and cooperatives engaging in the project have well
performed their role in production and consumption, paying attention to introducing
Da River fish to consumers. The Hoa Binh clean food store and its branches have
been established, supplying Da River fish to major supermarkets in Hanoi like
Big C and Fivimart.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh attended a groundbreaking ceremony for an electronic printed circuit board (PCB) factory at Da River Left Bank Industrial Park in Hoa Binh province on April 13. The electronic PCB factory is invested by Japan's Meiko Group at a total cost of 200 million USD.
In the first quarter of 2024, the credit institutions in the province have actively deployed the legal documents of the State and the State Bank relating to currency, credit and interest rates. At the same time, they have promoted the capital mobilization, focusing on the solutions to expand the credit investment along with strengthening the credit quality management, lending to priority programs to promptly meet the capital needs for export - business and consumer demand during Tet in 2024.
